Previous findings have suggested that auditory attention causes not only enhancement in neural processing gain, but also sharpening in neural frequency tuning in human auditory cortex. The current study was aimed to reexamine these findings, and inve...

Effect of contralateral medial olivocochlear feedback on perceptual estimates of cochlear gain and compression (2016)
Journal Article

The active cochlear mechanism amplifies responses to low-intensity sounds, compresses the range of input sound intensities to a smaller output range, and increases cochlear frequency selectivity. The gain of the active mechanism can be modulated by t... Read More about Effect of contralateral medial olivocochlear feedback on perceptual estimates of cochlear gain and compression.
